is there a way or possibly a command line tool for querying a remote file and 
having it dump the select into a local outfile.
it does exacly what i want from the server, but only to create a file on the 
server.  and just adding local doesn't/hasn't work.
and mysqldump outputs sql, which isn't what i'm looking for either.

SELECT blah, blah2, blah3 .........
INTO LOCAL OUTFILE 'blubering.txt'
FIELDS
        TERMINATED BY '\t'
        ENCLOSED BY ''
        ESCAPED BY ''
FROM chatter_table;
